Richd 12 Apl 1825
Dear Sir,
I hand above ℀ sales the last parcel of 42 Blls:, fine flour, recd on your ℀, at $4⅛ Cash—I have been anxious to close sales of it ever since it was recd, but the article has been almost entirely without demand, as indeed it is yet—super fine is very dull at $4½— In haste
Yours very Truly
B. Peyton
